The mission of St. John’s Lutheran School Library Media
Center is to support literacy, develop and sustain the love of reading, and to foster
life-long learning. The library is open
every school day from 7:30am-3:30pm.

The library program at St. John’s actively
reaches out to the student population and seeks to provide services relevant to
current learning. Students are encouraged to read for pleasure and to utilize
the library resources in conjunction with their classroom learning. World Book
Online Databases are available for research, the Accelerated Reading Program is
utilized in grades K-5, and both hardcover and ebooks are available for student
use. Classes have regularly scheduled visits, and students have the opportunity
to visit the library individually. Students in grades K-5 participate in the
California Young Reader Medal Award Program, reading eligible books and
participating in the voting process for the award. In addition, an extracurricular
program, Battle of the Books, is
available for students who are interested.
